Thousands of innocent lives Came crashing down
Burnt in the flames of wrath In plain selfish ways…
Thousands of innocent lives Taken in an instant
By a belief shrouded by greed,
A belief not worth defending…
And I cry…
A bath in blood,
A downpour of tears…
With prayers to counter
All established fears…
A nation in crisis,
The earth in turmoil,
I wonder what evil is inflicted
Upon this man with no heart…
And I cry…
But as pain and fear cover this planet,
A light flickers in the dark.
Humanity coming together having the same creed…
Regardless of race, of status and the color of their skin…
United to battle one enemy…
With one prayer and one hope…
Struggling to regain the freedom and peace which once reigned…
Working together to achieve this common dream…
Thus, I believe that in this fight against terrorism…
We all will win…
And I smile…
